How to Make Apple Cobbler With Sweet Biscuit Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with non-stick cooking spray for easy cleanup.
  3. In a large saucepan, whisk together ½ cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, ¼ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Slowly whisk in 1 cup water until smooth.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly until thickened.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons butter, and 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 6 medium apples).
  7. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring gently.
  8. To make the biscuit crust: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  9. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  10. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup milk and 1 large egg.
  11. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently with a fork until just combined. Do not overmix.
  12. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 7 times.
  13. Roll the dough to ¼ inch thickness and use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
  14. Pour the apple filling into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the biscuits on top of the filling.
  15. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
